Norwalk High football game postponed

Friday night's high school football game between Norwalk and Darien was postponed to today due to impending inclement weather. The Bears will host the Blue Wave on Saturday at 5 p.m. at Testa Field.

Norwalk is 2-6 overall while Darien is 6-2 overall and 5-2 in the FCIAC. The Blue Wave have won five straight.

Since it's Senior Night and the final home game of the season for the Bears, Norwalk didn't want poor weather putting a damper on the festivities.

"We've had four home games and there's been bad weather every time," Norwalk Athletic Director Wayne Mones said. "We're supposed to get rain and 35-mile-an-hour winds. We just didn't want it to be a miserable event."

Norwalk will complete the season on Thanksgiving Day against Brien McMahon at Jack Casagrande Field.
